By far the best solution, although not the cheapest is to separate your email and web requirements from your connectivity ISP. Register your own domain, then you can chop & change connectivity ISPs at the drop of a hat - as long as you don't do anything as foolish as sigh up with one which a 1-year (or more!) contract!! Jsut remember - BT may supply the copper and run the wholesale network but you then have a choice of over 100 connectivity ISPs to choose from - as well as the rather smaller number of LLU operators. BT Retail is just one of those 100+ ISPs who make use of the BTW network.
